It would be nice to see that happen, but I strongly doubt it will.  Two
years ago, when the Final Five was at the Bradley Center, the UW-St. Cloud
game was the 2:00 Friday game.  There was a surprisingly large number of
people there (not a sellout, but still good for a weekday afternoon).  I
know I'm skipping classes, and both my father and brother are taking off
work for this game, maybe other people will do the same.
